Mindstorm's Storm Front

UPDATE: Well I did get 0.60 out and it was a bomb as far as I was concerned in two major areas:
1. Chat underlining/individual keyword highlighting was broken for numbers
2. Multiple alert suppression is going to make a little bit more work than than my Id10T fix

I got those issue 1 fixed (for now I hope) and reverted the alerts back to their 0.59 roots although I could not test all alert possibilities. So if you installed 0.60, thanks for testing and giving me the feedback I needed and now please install 0.61.

We got Smack Hero of the Day recognition for the SwakSmack Jellyfish FireFox extension. It only mentions seventoes and me, but there are others who are or have been a big part of SwakSmack.

Major Things To Note
Auto TinyURL conversion
1. url must begin with http://
2. can be disabled in options
3. Default Threshold length before converting to a tinyurl is 35 chars. This number includes the 'http://'. Feel free to change this number to whatever fits your style

Outwit Randomizer Guesser

Release 0.59 is getting pretty close for public testing (another day or so I hope). filet0fish added a outwit guess randomizer to the outwit vote reminder alert box so for those of you who can't pick a number between 1 and 6, this will do it for you (and no, there are no warranties or guarantees that the supplied guess is a guaranteed "winner")

I've never used google code, but this is as good of time as any to give it a try. The SwakSmack project can be found here: swaksmack.googlecode.com. I haven't setup any other project members yet, but if you are interested in being a member, send an email to binary10+swaksmack@gmail.com. Anybody can access the project source at http://code.google.com/p/swaksmack/source (or at least should be able to access it)

I've attempted to enable the FireFox extension auto update feature in version 0.58. Even if you have downloaded 0.58, please make sure you downloaded it from here. I have no idea if it works, but hopefully we'll find out with the next version. As usual, please let me know of any problems.

The next release (0.58) is mostly a robustness/stability release. The comment coloring has been refactored making the execute method look a bit cleaner, but the big changes are in the handling of the regex. It is currently very easy to kill your FireFox session or cause it to go CPU bound by adding keywords that have some of the regex literals in them. There is also a bug where if a keyword is repeated in a chat post and highlighting by word and/or underlining is on, the chat comment will get a bunch of html "droppings" when the repeating keyword is processes for highlighting.

SwakSmack is a Mozilla FireFox extension intended to enhance your JellyFish.com Smack Shopping experience.
